The real pisser is that Juan McLame would have probably said the same thing if he were POTUS now.

I really hope there is a party crasher, , er, uh, "undocumented attendee" at the state dinner tonight.

In welcoming Mexico’s President Calderone to the White House today, President Obama told him “we are defined not by our borders, but you are.”

There. That’s better

"we are defined not by our borders, but by our bonds."

No, we're defined by our laws, not our bonds. Our bonds develop out of our laws, bonding us to those of similar mind and love of freedom, and the rule of law.

At least, that's the way is was...

>President Obama Tells Mexican President “We are Not Defined by Our Borders”

What is skin, but a border?
By this logic I could punch the president in the face and not be assaulting him because, logically, he is not defined by his border. Correct?

Has the administration published the terms of the Surrender of the United States to Mexico? Are there any secret protocols? Did “The Divine One” and his apostles give Mexico the Southwest? When is Texas being transfered? Does the present population of New Mexico get to keep their property when the transfer is effectuated? Questions abound!

"we are defined not by our borders, but by our bonds."

This is an interesting comment on Obama himself.

Obama is a confused young man...confused as to who he is and confused about the very manner in which a person (or a country) is defined.

Saying a country is defined by its bonds instead of its boundaries is like saying a person is not defined by himself, but by his friends.

This is a pre-adolescent kind of notion.

Grown-ups may have friends or they may be hermits. But they are defined by their internal nature--their ethical qualities--and their willingness to manifest those qualities by their actions.

In fact, a person who holds his friendships more important than his character probably has very little of either.
